I must be blind, but I am unable to find a way to have a xymonnet test result go yellow instead of red.
If I have the following line in my hosts.cfg: 0.0.0.0 foo.bar.com # telnet
I'd like the telnet test to report yellow instead of red when the port test is not responding. I see I can prefix it with "?" to have it return clear instead of red, but how can I make it return yellow instead of red?
Not possible, sorry.
You can use 'delayred' to give it some time to recover without triggering an alert.

I have not been able to figure out how to have a conn test (ping test) only turn red if it has been failing for 10 minutes.
Anybody! Please and thank you.
